Condensation probs!

How do i counteract too much condensation when using perlite?

I thought that maybe get a slight misting of the lid when using perlite but i am getting big droplets! Would i add more dry perlite, more moist perlite or would i reduce the amount of perlite in the tub?

Not sure how to reduce the amount of condensation, does there need to be more air in between the lid and perlite surface or less air?

Cheers guys

did you use a 1 to .08 mix of perlite and water?

Yeh sorry forgot to mention that.

Read somewhere about the ratio works well but the size of the tub also has to be taken into account, different amounts of air etc.

The ratio still remains the same... As long as your ratio is correct and the condensation is not dripping on the eggs, you should be fine... If you are really worried about it, you can add a few pin holes in the lid...
